I flashed earlier. Clean install. Had the freezing and it wouldn't dl all of some websites so to fix the freezing I cleanly installed the recommended kernel. Then the web pages would dl. No freezing afterwords. Then after an hour of setting things up the phone just randomly started getting force closes on the browser. Rebooted then the camera wouldn't work. Gave up. Used the rerfs ec05 and had no issue at all. Any ideas why the random issues? My Evo has never been so sensitive to a good Tom but the epic seems to really really not like much of anything. Frankenstein froyo v25xxx dk28 lasted longer than any other rom I tried which is funny but are there any users who have dl'd this rom and had 0 issues at all. No force closes, no camera or browser issue?
[Epic 4G Android Development] daddymikey1975:
I had a bunch of issues trying to get this version flashed. I spent a couple hours troubleshooting it. After successfully getting it flashed, I had a random reboot after an hour, I also had some weird lockup after using USB storage. After a battery pull (which corrupted data) i got tons of force closes.

Personally, I went back to SRF 1.0.2 for stability and reliability (I need a reliable bug--free phone for work).

Hoping the next release plays more nicely w/ my phone. (To be fair though, I've seen lots of things play nicely w/ some devices and not others. I think it's just a matter of picky devices ATM. Hopefully ACS will release the next version and it will be much more friendly across devices :) )
[Epic 4G Android Development] philowneus:
yes you can enable journaling through clockwork. But I wish there was a working journaled version so this thread was 3000 posts shorter. Although I do consider myself near expert now. Thanks impaler.
[Epic 4G Android Development] philowneus:
Thanks for your hard work and amazing rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Haha same here. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] abduljaffar:
I had to jump ship to bonsai. I love this rom but what killed it was the stock browser. Its stutters when panning on some sites. Im suspecting the mod to eliminate the checkered board also hampered performance. But I found out my epic runs at 1.4 stable. ;)

Fix the browser n ill be back.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Push the old one like I did. Read back a couple posts.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Push the browser I posted a few pages ago to fix it ;)

Hey is the TWS fix a kernel thing or is it a ROM thing?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Not 100 sure, but I'd guess it's a rom thing.

Sent from a truly Epic phone on the XDA Premium app ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Hmm. The reason I ask is it hit me again, but I'm on a different kernel. It wasn't 50% though. More like 25%. So I guess it was just an aphid and not quite a bug.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
It's only cosmetic, so I really wouldn't worry about it much

[Epic 4G Android Development] Rivas123:
so as far as the fc-ing goes, I tried the fix permissions thing but it didn't help, what did work though was starting fresh with 1.02 then going to 1.1 it worked for me that way, idk if it will for anyone else, just thought i would share.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup, that's due to data corruption from an improper shut-off. Just wiping data would have worked.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rivas123:
i've always shut off properly though, wiping data didn't work this time. maybe it was one of those one in a million type of deals.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
What FC was it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rivas123:
Everything, it wasn't even connecting to the provider.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yeah, that's data corruption.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
Just flashed and having absolutely no problems. Running fast and smooth as glass.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Awesome, glad you like it, and thanks for your support! :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Do yourself a favor and enable journaling. Seriously.
[Epic 4G Android Development] seymoreholes:
Just flashed this last night, the first time I got mixed boot screens and crashes so I flashed again. Second time it booted properly and I got some random FC's from youtube, facebook, and gmail app. I uninstalled these and reinstalled them from the market and the FC's stopped. So far so good.

I don't have much to compare it to because this phone just came in from sprint at 3pm yesterday (I've been stuck with the touch pro for 2 years) but it is FAST and seems to be stable now. Donating now!
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Koane and Tanimn

Just wanted to say.......I had surgery on Monday and only used my phone for everything all week......and believe me I used it a lot....all internet, games, music.....everything....I have over 90 apps and none failed...no fc's....just smooth sailing.....the rom just kicked ass to put it simple....battery life was great also....thx for making my recovery from surgery that much better!!:D
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
First of all, I hope you're ok and recovering well. Second of all, thank you for your support, and glad you like the rom :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] burgerpimp07:
Ahem.

Haha, jk
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
I'm pretty sure k0 doesn't mind that I tell someone I hope they're feeling better and that I'm happy they like an ACS product ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] burgerpimp07:
I know, i'm just giving you a hard time, haha.

You're probably one of the most helpful people on the epic forums tbh.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Thanks man :) I appreciate that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mutiny32:
Hate to say it, but 1.1.0 in any form simply doesn't play nice with my phone. That and the hoops you have to jump through just to get it to work without crashing if you give it a funny look are ridiculous. I've now tried all four versions of 1.1.0, three different kernels, and multiple wipes of EVERYTHING. There is no easy way of saying that 1.1.0 is crap. I'm sorry if that offends the ACS team, but in my opinion it's true. The random lockups, the permissions nightmare, the massive journaling/data-loss problems, I could go on and on.

I mean in this the most sincere ans supportive way possible when I recommend you guys need to address these critical issues and make a new release before going forward.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Seeing as these are not rom issues, but issues from you not reading, doing support, etc, there is nothing to address with the rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Enable journaling.

I agree it's unstable as-is but with journaling ON it's fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kalel_293:
gotta say...the rom is running great for me...no freezes or fc at all...im running fully loaded without journaling...i havent come across the issue of data loss like ive read many people are having...maybe im just lucky...i didnt even have to fix any permissions...ive installed 1.1.0 like 4 times and every install is the same for me...

only wish battery life is better...i still feel 1.0.2 had a better battery life...i havent tried the genocide kernel tho..i just dont want a different kernel if its going to break anything...
[Epic 4G Android Development] kalel_293:
impaler..

any suggestions on how to make battery life better?...so far...i have sync off...display brightness to lowest...im running 1gh...setcpu profile of 400 max 200 min screen off...drm off...

i put ur name specifically because ur always quick to reply :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Don't set a screen off profile, just leave it 1000-100. Also, download spare parts, and see what's using your battery. :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] kalel_293:
i have spare parts...i just dont know what im looking at..lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Take a few screenshots for me. Of battery stats, usage of battery, partial wake battery, and I'll see if anything looks abnormal.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rivas123:
Impaler I searched and I read that the stock apps (nascar and such) work on fully loaded. I have fully loaded and it doesn't seem to work. This is an old issue but never got around to it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
They don't work yet, we're working on a fix for that :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Craigmier:
Agreed. I was having problems after upgrading to 1.1. Saw others not having issues so I knew it wasnt rom. Wiped everything 3 times, reloaded 1.1 n zero issues since. Odds r if u r having issues just need to wipe wipe wipe n flash n it will be fine. Keep up great work ACS!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rivas123:
Haha should have known. Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Just because you have issues does not make it a rom issue....lol.....why is it running flawless for me??..........i ran it hard all week with zero issues....

Incorrect....journaling is off for me....
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
No problem :D

Same, the only time I'd recommend journaling on is when messing with the UV level for testing. Other then that, journaling is off for me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kalel_293:
are those the o.es u wanna c?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jbadboy2007:
I have ran this rom since it was released a couple weeks ago. I have not had ANY ISSUE even with using all kernels available on xda. So........ sorry you don't know what you are doing maybe try reading or asking questions.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yes, now, how long have you had your phone unplugged?
[Epic 4G Android Development] dcowboys2184:
I notice on 1.1 my swype beta won't work I get a error ID mismatch... as on 1.0.2 it wasn't a problem... anyone else having this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Swype is included with this; are you using that version?
[Epic 4G Android Development] kalel_293:
i was charging it...so literally about a minute

edit: i took the usage stat when it was plugged in...
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Not going to work unfortunately. I need it after it's been used as you normally would without it being plugged in for a while.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kalel_293:
ok thankx...i will post caps later then after normal usage...also is it normal when charging (with phone on) the blue indicator comes on as if its fully charged...but my battery is only at 98%? it never goes to 100% when charging with phone on...i tried charging with phone off and it goes all the way to 100%..
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yes, that is normal. :) It's done to protect the battery.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kalel_293:
gotcha! thankx again...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shoulon:
Havent posted here ina while. so update is, ROMs great. its awesomly fast smooth and batterys been amazin =)

[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
any truth to the rumor that TV Out may be in the near future?

Thats the one dragon left to be slayed!
[Epic 4G Android Development] boktai1000:
I would just like to say thank you for providing easily accessible links on these forums to download and install the ROM. It really makes it a lot easier from an end user perspective.

Keep up the good work and looking forward to what will be released in the future! :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
hey impaler, if TV out is working someday, does that mean you could record a video and play it on TV as well?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Not a problem, thank you for your support!
[Epic 4G Android Development] dcowboys2184:
No I removed it and the lib to install the beta it always worked before except 1.1 it doesn't...
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Why would you even want to do that :confused:
[Epic 4G Android Development] myke66:
Just a follow up to the sound issue i was having, turning on the Force Analog volume hack in voodoo brought my sound back to the intensity that it was at previously. Im not sure why thats not on by default, but there it is
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Glad you got it working the way you like it :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Yes you should be able to....

[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Look, everyone knows that an improper shutdown or app can corrupt data and screw up the whole works with journaling off.

It's not the ROM's fault, but it's a damned good reason to not run that way. There is NO WAY to control if or when an app will get bad data and send you up a creek. It's just a matter of loading the wrong thing at the wrong time.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
But as pointed out, setting an automatic backup schedule, say, at 2:00 AM every night of your data will mean that even if you do get corrupt data, you can easily restore it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Which is exactly what I do...and at 2am...lol:D
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup, me too lol :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
What up flyers....thanks for the response
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
That works, assuming corruption doesn't occur during or right after you did anything important on your phone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] myke66:
How is this done exactly? Through the recovery or an app?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
App, recovery doesn't have that setting. Titanium and my backup pro will do this.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xhyperion:
Titanium is your friend
[Epic 4G Android Development] dcowboys2184:
Because the beta version is better than the already installed version ...
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Stability is my friend. Titanium is merely an acquaintance.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
How? What features does it have that we don't?
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Whats up bro...been out of the loop...had some surgery on Monday and been down and out....slowly recovering...

I personally recommend MyBackUpPro.....I have always used it over any other backup app....
[Epic 4G Android Development] BlackPearl890:
So, after a week of using the ROM without any problems the framework & swype started force closing and I didn't do anything different to it :S

I'm going to do a restore but I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Data corruption due to an improper shutoff.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BlackPearl890:
that could be it :o .. me & my noob self smh

thanks for the help!
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Lol, no problem, let me know if you need anything else! :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
Explain what an improper shutoff is or shutdown is?

Because all the time when it happens to me is when i just hit power down menu then click power off. It seems strange that the normal way turning off the phone is improper, i could understand if i battery pull it but i don't only if the phone wont get off a freeze. 1-2 times i got corrupted data because of a battery pull.

and 1-4 times from shutting off the phone through the actual power down menu and clicking power off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Any time you don't hit the power button, select shut down from the menu, and wait for the phone to vibrate is an improper shutoff.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeremiah.rs:
+1.

I do the same thing and it keeps happening to me, I've had to reinstall 1.1.0 at least five times. I don't mind doing it because its a great rom, but its just a bit of an annoyance sometimes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Just enable journaling then.
[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
Thats what i always do, so thats what im getting at is that, how am i getting data corruption when i do exactly as you said. I always just turn it off normally like you mentioned but it still happens to me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
To be honest, I doubt that. Just enable journaling to get it 100% foolproof.
[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
How do you enable journaling. But serious i always go to shutoff the phone like that plus i never use the reboot option as well. so im just hating how my phone acts. Rom is terrific its just on the phone side.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Make a nandroid, and immediately restore it. Bam, journaling on.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BlackPearl890:
I typed 'mount' on the Terminal Emulator (as suggested here) to verify if I'm in journaling mode now or not. Is this what the output is supposed to look like?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Not my specialty, but if you restored a backup, you should be good ;) :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] BlackPearl890:
lol oki doki :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] iSaint:
No matter what i flash.... i always come back to this Rom... i guess this time ill stay on it for awhile
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
You'd better! :p Thanks for your support ;) :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] iSaint:
Hmmm thats a first... wiped 3x and installed got stuck in a boot loop then ended back up at the sammy screen ... then another boot loop

im sure a reflash will do it
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup, should
[Epic 4G Android Development] iSaint:
Yuppy that did it, but it didn't reboot by itself when it was done hmmmm somethings up
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
It doesn't any more ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] iSaint:
O i was about to go sherlock homes on that b*tch didn't know that
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Lol, no problem :) Shout if anything else is suspicious.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dcowboys2184:
To me less errors... Other stuff .. Just better than the pre-installed version trust me!
[Epic 4G Android Development] lcordero:
My data connection seems to drop more frequently now with this update. Is anyone else having this issue?

could be a de de de issue on my end but just checking.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Certainly not a rom issue ;) Just on your end unfortunately, what radio do you have?
[Epic 4G Android Development] lcordero:
Firmware = 2.2.1

Baseband = S:D700.0.5S.EC05

Kernel = 2.6.32.9

Build = SRF 1.1.0/Twilight Zone 1.1.0

Hardware V = D700.0.5

PRl = 60676

if that helps
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yeah, EC05 is the correct one. Just a location thing then.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zentex:
I'm not near a pc, and I won't be near onee for a while...so pardon my lack of research. Looking for a fix in the short term.

I just installed the aosp lock screen and everything was FC'n, so I fixed permissions in the console, then did it again in ROM Manager, at that point it fixed everything except...Now the only thing that's crashing is the stock email app.

Ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Wipe the data of the email app :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] zentex:
I thought of that and tried it. Sorry, left it out. When I hit clear data it FC's
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Could be a compatibility issue with the lockscreen. Try reflashing the rom and seeing if it corrects.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Christ, dude, this what I've been saying! Yet you deny that non-journaling isn't stable. :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
That's not what I recommend for most users, only users that have issues, frequently. Hence, "foolproof" ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] philowneus:
You have the patience of a saint. I get so frustrated reading this thread. I'm curious to know if there are any plans for any custom non samsung crap from acs. Or is it more I have to wait for cm team.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Well, I'd call no TW and no CIQ about as non Samsung as you can get without going AOSP ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] zentex:
Argh. Ok that did it. Was hoping I wouldn't have to do that, and it was on my trouble shooting list.

Fwiw, the aosp lockscreen I installed is the one on the main post of this thread.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Well then it should work. You said clearing data did nothing? But reflashing the rom did?
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
Impaler - he is asking about the fix that changes the network name from ACS back to Sprint, I think it was for the NFL app
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nitefall:
I started getting some crazy problems today after having changed nothing on my phone in about a week, all of a sudden programs started to fc on me and what not and not knowing about fixing permissions i tried a reinstall of the rom, but it wouldnt boot up.

So I erased data 3x and installed the rom, installed titanium backup and reset now im getting fc's on a couple programs.

I guess what I'm getting at is where and how do I fix permissions and am I going to need to do a sd card format?

2 fc's i get now are swype and android.process.acore

Swype I can delete the data but not sure about acore....

sorry still a bit noobish
[Epic 4G Android Development] somedude0608:
So I jut ran into my first issue. Pulled the phone off the wall charger and I've got "usb connected" and " usb debugging connected" constantly cycling in the banner.

I'm running this rom, genocide kernel, journaling on.

Anyone have any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Ah, ok, that's being worked on.

Just clear all data if you want to start fresh.

Does plugging/replugging help? Could just be a weird glitch.
[Epic 4G Android Development] somedude0608:
I'll try. So far I have rebooted and toggled the dubugging box to try to interupt it but no luck. Wow, plugged it back into the charger and it stopped. I wonder what that did that a reboot wouldn't have reset? Either way prob solved.
[Epic 4G Android Development] musclehead84:
Mine does that sometimes too man.

Sent From My Evo Killer!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nitefall:
I did clear all data in cwm 3x and then installed 1.1 and am constantly getting swype fc's and occasional acore fc's..... should i just rewipe and try a fresh install again?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yeah, just a little weird sensor thing probably.

Yes. Doesn't sound like you're doing a factory reset.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zentex:
Well...I tried to just reapply the rom overtop, but that didn't jive so I wiped and reflashed. That did it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Cool, glad it's working now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] seymoreholes:
Everything seems to work great but I get 1 FC every boot for providers.drm. Any suggestions? Should I even worry about it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Reflash the rom I'd say, but try fixing permissions first :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] seymoreholes:
Thanks I tried fixing permissions already. Just reflash over it? No wiping?
[Epic 4G Android Development] afpdl:
so i turned on my phone today and i lost root access. Everything else is functioning normally I just cant use rooted apps. Anyone else ever experiance this? The phone has been rooted since i got it and i have been running 1.0.2 without issues since it came out
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Reflash the rom, no wipes. Did you happen to flash a different kernel?
[Epic 4G Android Development] afpdl:
The phone has had nothing other than what came with the 1.0.2 rom since being odined. I was running wifi tether with no issues, fell asleep with it on, when i woke up the phone was off with 100% charge, turned it on and didnt notice any problems till i tried an app that needs root. No fcs or other odd things. Ill reflash now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yeah, a reflash of even just the kernel ought to work too.
[Epic 4G Android Development] seymoreholes:
Reflashed, still get the FC on boot. I'm over it, I haven't seen any issues because of it so whatever.
